Settler’s Bay Coastal Park Exporation-O Meet, Saturday, August 14, 2021
This meet was held in conjunction with Settler’s Bay Coastal Park Exploration Day sponsored by the Great Land Trust and Mat-Su Trails and Parks Foundation. What started as a rainy morning turned into a beautiful sunny afternoon. Over 50 people got out on the courses and for many this was their first time orienteering.
Thank you to Dela for designing and setting the courses, Mary for helping set the courses, Mark for providing training to newcomers, and Mike for picking up controls.
